The following image shows the front panel of the PA-3200 Series firewall and the table describes each front
panel component. The only differences between the PA-3220, PA-3250, and PA-3260 (shown) front panels
are the model name and the Ethernet ports, as described in the table.

PA-3200 SERIES NEXT-GEN FIREWALL HARDWARE REFERENCE | PA-3200 Series Firewall Overview
Description
Twelve RJ-45 10Mbps/100Mpbs/1Gbps ports for
network traffic. The link speed and link duplex are auto-
negotiate only.
These ports vary depending on your firewall model:
• PA-3220 firewall—Ports 13 through 16 are SFP
(1Gbps) and ports 17 through 20 are SFP or SFP+
(10Gbps) based on the installed transceiver.
• PA-3250 and PA-3260 firewalls—Ports 13 through
20 are SFP (1Gbps) or SFP+ (10Gbps) based on the
installed transceiver.
(PA-3260 only) Four QSFP+ (40Gbps) ports as defined by
the IEEE 802.3ba standard.
One SFP+ (10Gbps) port (supports only an SFP+
transceiver or passive SFP+ cable).
Use this port to connect two PA-3200 Series firewalls in
a high availability (HA) configuration as follows:
• In an active/passive configuration, this port is for HA2
(data link).
• In an active/active configuration, you can configure
this port for HA2 and HA3. HA3 is used for packet
